The aftermath of abuse is long-lasting. After bruises heal, actual and figurative, the trauma caused continues to linger. It stays with you, but not only that, it can be passed on. Passed on to children, and grandchildren. Spreading out for generations, so pervasive that an entire people, an entire race can wallow in self-hate and self- degradation and never understand why.
Take a moment listen to how the scars of abuse survive, long after the abused and the abuser have perished.
